[0.90] Lazor System v35 (Dec 17)

[kong]

but is not bomb shape

[Romfarer]

Okay, what am I missing about the Red Lazor system? I had just taken off with my spaceplane, turned on the Lazor system to control attitude and bearing. I had set my bearing (heading) for 90 degrees and for a climb to 21000 meters. At about 15000 and over Mach 1.2, I wasn't on course anymore and I had stopped climbing, in fact I was starting to pendulum, but actually the swing was increasing. I've had no problems with getting the craft to altitude before, and thought the Lazor system would help me to perform some long range flights, without me having to babysit.

I have also had instances, where I had no keyboard control when I tried to recover.

Did you try this with one of the planes that comes with my mod?

[Darkeldar]

Yes, I tried out the Vampire, and I used the lazor configuration on my craft. My craft still oscillated about +/- 12 degrees from my chosen bearing making it difficult to climb to the altitude I wanted. Putting in desired altitude and bearing into the interface is an adventure in itself, as I can't just type in the values I desire, as I have to activate these settings to change them, then backspace and hit keys so I hopefully end up with the heading I want, not 10 or 220, while I'm trying for 90 degrees. I can't seem to break 7000m altitude under the Lazor system while I have had my spaceplane in orbit before.

I think the red lazor interface needs a separate execute button, instead of the crapshoot I get when I try to adjust anything.

I have enough TWR that I can climb to altitude, but I just need something to control roll and unwanted lateral movement. Just give me pitch control and I'll be circumnavigating.

Is it possible to get a lazor to point to coordinates on the ground? I have entered a location as target and don't need to have the auto-pilot land for me. Just need a marker at the location I wanna land at. I am trying with a red lazor, maybe I am missing something. Blue?

I can't see any close window buttons and it is getting very annoying.

@thedude4521

here's how to install:just put the gamedata folder into ksp folder

Hey Jim, since you've already got a target feature that can make a rocket (in my case an ICBM) crash into the ground at a chosen coordinate, how about making it able to also target vessels? The guidance would work just like the normal guidance, but it would try to hit the vessel instead of the coordinates.

[CommandantAce]

Target location was not implemented, tbh im not quite sure why it's even in there ;-)

Romfarer/anyonewillingtoanswer, quick question + suggestion... Is there a way to fire missiles rapidly without destroying my space bar? Like a Lazor System section that would activate certain things rapidly or at a certain time/place. Example: point at orbital debris and activate X missile at 30,000 m. above Kerbin. (Is this a MechJeb thing? If not, Romfarer, can you add it? MechJeb is lethal to my PC...)

You could use action groups, but you've only got 10 of them. I agree that a function to "launch missiles in set order every 0.5 seconds" would be very cool, especially for videos.

whats new in lazor system v31???

[macdjord]

@Romfarer: Can we get a version of the docking cam that has the same high-def, full-colour display as the camera module? The grainy, low-contrast grey-scale image we currently get certainly looks authentic, but it's bloody hard to see your target in anything but ideal lighting conditions.

Mr. Romfarer-

First off, thanks you for such a great series of mods that are greatly increasing the KSP gameplay.

However, I have encountered quite a few problems-

1. The Mod system has a large problem when I'm using it- the boxes of which the info is seen in is not there on my screen, leaving all the works, pictures and option free floating and quite confusing. This is annoying, yes, but also, I can't X out any of the tabs I open from the menu in the right side of my screen. So Once I activate the system, and I have all the options (EX: subsystems, target cam, config, main panel, targets, achievements) once I click and open one, I can't get rid of it.

2. THE MORE PRESSING PROBLEM: The entire subsystems tab does not work. WHen I open the subsystem tab, (keep in mid there aren't any boxes, so just floating words) It lists all the different lazor colors I have equipped. However, I get no option to click, which means no meun of options to open, which means NOTHING works in my laser system. PLEASE help!

As there have been minimal responses, here are some screen shots to refere to.

Does this mod have Tech Tree integration?

[likke_A_boss]

Does this mod have Tech Tree integration?

Yes, It does, at the very end of the tree

[SergeantBlueforce]

So it's another mod that just dumps it's parts at the end of the tree, great...

[likke_A_boss]

For a mod with this kind of capabilities, it's kinda a fair place. The robotic arms, missiles, camera and docking cam are father up

I couldn't find a bug report link on the first post so I'm putting this here.

The plugin seems to block the quicksaving and space center. After some invetigation if think i found the sourec of the problem.

The inability to save happens only when a new subsystem has been created with the config tab.

only tried with tractor beam:

-I load a ship on the launchpad with laz sys onbard, can save just fine.

-go to config, unassign one of the group, still can save

-make the unassigned laser group a new subsystem, can't save anymore.

-Unassign the newly created subsys, saving ability is back.

Is this a bug or an incompatibility between the plugin and the way ships are saved ?

Hi!

Same issue here.

Is it possible to rescale the Lazor Cam window to something bigger than the small and slighty smaller sizes? Cheers!

[SergeantBlueforce]

How big is the memory footprint of this mod? I already have a lot of mods and I don't want to increase my memory load too much.

[Khan_Tiger]

Anyone have word on compatibility with .23?

[Virtualgenius]

Having an issue with Buran Robotic arm not being loaded

[lantay77]

Not working in .23 for me.
